Mission
Horizon Prosthetics was established in January of 2007 by
Mandy J. Myers, CP, CFm. In late 2006,

specialized prosthetic care center.
Our mission is to provide advanced prosthetic services in a
compassionate and positive environment.

While completing her undergraduate degree in mechanical
engineering, Mandy was introduced to the prosthetics industry by a family
friend. Mandy traveled to Las Vegas, Nevada
to shadow a Prosthetist named Robert Brooks, CPO and after a few short hours
she immediately knew this was the career for her. Mandy’s official prosthetics training began
at Scott Sabolich
Prosthetics & Research Center in Oklahoma
City, Oklahoma. There she trained under direction of Scott
Sabolich, CP, LP and Jay Martin, CP, LP learning the principles of prosthetic
design and the importance of one-on-one patient care. After completing her engineering education,
Mandy attended California State Dominguez Hills Prosthetic Certification
program in Aliso Viejo, California. Her residency was completed in Phoenix, Arizona
under the direction of Randy West, CP.
While working in Arizona,
Mandy also had the privilege of working with Jack Ullendahl, CP and Upper
Extremity Specialist on several unique prosthetic cases. Mandy and her husband moved to Colorado Springs in the
fall of 2005 and immediately knew this was home.
Mandy was recently certified by Otto Bock Healthcare to fit
the Helix3D Hip Joint System, a revolutionary prosthetic hip joint which has
3-dimensional motion with hydraulic control.
This Hip Joint System is available for hip distarticulation and
hemipelvectomy clients. Mandy J. Myers
is the only Colorado Prosthetist qualified to fit the Helix3D Hip Joint
System. To learn more about the Helix

After earning his prosthetics degree, Joel
completed his prosthetics residency in Colorado
Springs. He
spent 3-1/2 years at the world renowned Scott Sabolich Prosthetics and Research
in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, seeing patients sometimes
classified as ‘hard-to-fit’. While at
Sabolich, Joel had the opportunity to work with several upper extremity
prosthetic clients and is certified to fit the Otto Bock DynamicArm. Taking a sabbatical from patient care in
2007, he spent two years conducting prosthetic research in Oklahoma City: the first year with Martin
Bionics, before it merged with Orthocare Innovations. He has been certified by the American Board
of Certification in Prosthetics and Orthotics for 5 years and has been
practicing for 7 years.
Joel joined Horizon Prosthetics in October
of 2009 and is a wonderful addition to the practice. He is a native of Colorado and is glad to be back
‘home’. Joel is the only Colorado Prosthetist
qualified to fit the DynamicArm and the only Colorado Springs Prosthetist
qualified to fit the Harmony® Elevated Vacuum System. To learn more about the DynamicArm click
